Promises Stronger Than Darkness marks the final installment of the international bestselling author Charlie Jane Anders's absolutely heart-stopping YA series, Unstoppable.
They're the galaxy's most wanted—and our only hope.
When Elza became a space princess, she thought she'd be spending her time at the palace, wearing gorgeous couture and soaking up everything there is to know—but instead, she's on the run, with everyone hunting for her and her friends.
Rachael followed her best friend Tina on the adventure of a lifetime—but now Tina's gone, and Rachael's the only one keeping her friends together, as they go on a desperate quest to save everyone from an ancient curse.
Rachael, Elza and their friends have found one clue, one shining mysterious chance to stop the end of the world. And that takes them back to the second-to-last place they'd want to be: enlisting the aid of Captain Thaoh Argentian, the woman who stole Tina's body (and who now seems to be relishing a second chance at teenage chaos and drama, instead of living up to her legacy of an intrepid heroic commander).
With only a ragtag band of misfits, crewmates, earthlings, friends, lovers (and one annoying frenemy), the Unstoppable Crew are up against the universe—and they soon find that in order to survive, they may have to cross a line they vowed never to cross.

      The Unstoppable trilogy comes to a close with this follow-up to 2022's Dreams Bigger Than Heartbreak. The final installment of Anders' science-fiction romp begins after a big loss in the previous book: Tina, one of the main characters of the first two books, is effectively dead, having lost her mind and body to the starship captain she was cloned from, Thaoh Argentian. Rachael, Tina's best friend, and Elza, Tina's girlfriend, mourn their loss as best they can as the upcoming threat of the Bereavement--weaponized black holes--draws near. Unfortunately, one of the few people who might be able to help them is the body-stealing Argentian herself, as the crew tries to save the very universe that has labeled them wanted villains. In a matter of days, the apocalyptic, star-destroying Bereavement will be unleashed upon the galaxy, and Anders' delightful cast must battle for the fate of the world while also dealing with relationship issues, grief, and various moral quandaries that face them on their journeys. While familiarity with the earlier entries is a must, the author deftly eases readers back into the storyline through subtle reminders of characters' relationships woven into the dialogue and succinct recaps within the text. This volume showcases Anders' layered worldbuilding and emphasis on interpersonal relationships. As before, characters diverse across multiple dimensions, including ethnicity and sexuality, are highlighted. Fast-paced, earnest, and epic. (Science fiction. 13-18)
